Terms and Conditions for Davidson Auctions

Conditions of Sale

Live Auction Timing
Items offered are part of a live auction held in our rooms. Items are offered in numerical order and are auctioned at a pace of approximately 100 an hour.

Absentee Bids
Absentee bids left on Artfact Live Auctions are not the same as bids left directly with Davidson Auctions. Artfact Live Auction absentee bids are executed by Artfact Live as and when the lot is being auctioned; and Davidson Auctions is not privy to the extent of your bid. Consequently, occasionally the situation may arise that the auctioneer acknowledges a floor bidder's bid before your Artfact bid of the same amount can be applied. In such cases the bid acknowledged by the auctioneer first will take precedence. The auctioneer's decision shall always be final.

Buyer Terms
All intending buyers must produce proofs of identity and address when demanded by the auctioneer. The auctioneer shall be judge of the sufficiency of such proofs. The buyer shall be deemed the principal unless Davidson Auctions has explicitly & formally agreed prior to the auction that he/she is acting as an agent at the auction. By participating in our auctions, the buyer agrees to abide by Davidson Auction's terms and conditions of sale.

A 19.8% buyers premium (GST inclusive where applicable) shall be payable on top of the hammer price of any and all winning bids. The buyers premium for Invaluable customers is 24.8% (GST inclusive where applicable).

All lots are sold on a GST inclusive basis where applicable.

Subject to any reserve price, the highest bidder shall be the buyer. The auctioneer reserves the right to not disclose the existence and/or amount of any such reserve. Further, the vendor shall have the right to bid by the auctioneer or by the vendor's agent.

The auctioneer reserves the right to accept or refuse any bid or bids without having to state any reasons therefore. Any bids accepted and relied upon by the auctioneer cannot be subsequently withdrawn by the bidder.

The auctioneer reserves the right to withdraw or re-offer any lot without giving any reason therefore. The auctioneer's decision shall be final.
The buyer shall be deemed to be the principal unless: (i), that person has disclosed upon registering that he or she is bidding on somebody else's behalf; and (ii), the auctioneer has agreed to and accepted proofs of such an arrangement.

Members of the public attend at their own risk. The auctioneer accepts no responsibility for any accident, loss or injury incurred before, during or after the sale.

Your bid is a contract.
